Dear Iman,
a very good introduction to geometric morphometrics for biologists is:
Zelditch, M. L., D. L. Swiderski, H. D. Sheets, and W. L. Fink. 2004.
Geometric Morphometrics for biologists: a primer. Elsevier Academic
Press: London. 443 pp. £44.95 ISBN: 0-12-77846-08.
* Reviews: Rohlf, F. J. 2005. Trends in Ecology and Evolution,
20:13-14.
* MacLeod, N. 2005. The Palaeontological Association Newsletter
58:7278
Hennessy (among others) has many publications on comparisons of humans
(faces, skulls etc.) using geometric morphometrics.
Good luck
Andrea
